Who’s wearing the suit? Thats what matters. I dislike wearing one pieces for many reasons, aways have done, and probably always will! 54 and still rocking the bikini and no I definitely don’t have a bikini bod, I just don’t care what someone else might think.

Robin, I think you look fantastic in your two piece! I think any woman will look great in anything she wears with confidence! Let’s continue to decide for ourselves what we love to wear!

Nina,

It seems this was a wonderful topic to be discussing with women over 50!
Many women wear swimsuits they feel comfortable in and age has nothing to do with it!
We should do another fashion disrupter soon!

Hugs,
Robin

In reply to Isabella.

Isabella,

Those are very good reasons not to wear a swimsuit or a bikini.
I appreciate you mentioning that issue.

Yes, if we love the sun and wear sun screen to protect our skin we should be able to wear what we feel comfortable wearing at any age.

Hugs,
Robin

You look fabulous so go for it! I wear a two piece at 50 (the top is a tankini and the bottom is a skirt) because for the life of me I cannot find a one piece that accommodates my large chest. I have loved wearing a swim skirt for years, I am so much more comfortable! Great topic Robin!

I just wore my leopard bikini from Victoria’s Secret last week at age 63 (at the beach with my husband.) I felt great because I’m still in shape (and I use Dermablend on my legs.) Just too shy to post my picture on Instagram in it. Lol!

Morning Robin!
I love both of your swimsuits on you! I still can’t get over your gorgeous pool! ( next house for us, will have one 🙂 ) I have always been one to think whatever makes a woman confident and comfortable in herself is what she should wear. I wear both a bikini and a one piece and really don’t think of age limit with swimsuits .and those articles, stop wearing a bathing suit at 61, that is like the jean article that women should stop wearing denim at 43.. who comes up with these arbitrary numbers ?
Have a great weekend!

Robin, love your post. I nearly posted a pic of Helen Mirren too. We were writing on the same lines. We will wear what we like and we applaud everyone’s right to do so. Chat soon my friend…. xxxx

When I was young I was so critical of my body and never felt comfortable in a bikini. Then I started vacationing down south at 52 and saw many women wearing bikinis and being so at ease I thought why not? I’ve always taken care of myself physically and I was finally ready to bare myself literally! It felt so good to be happy with my body and at 63 I still wear a bikini!

You look great, Robin! Yes, I wore a bikini between 55 and 60, but I was in Europe and the Caribbean, where no one is as body-obsessed as we are in the States. I haven’t even worn a swimsuit since I returned to the U.S., but I have a couple of tankinis in case the situation warrants.
